My notes
Method
- 1
Drain the can of water chestnuts and finely chop them.
- 2
Thaw the frozen spinach completely, then squeeze it firmly in a clean kitchen towel or over a strainer to remove as much excess water as possible — this keeps the spread from becoming watery.
- 3
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chopped water chestnuts, drained spinach, and chopped green onions.
- 4
Add the sour cream, mayonnaise, Dixie Dust, granulated garlic, onion, black pepper, and salt.
- 5
Stir until evenly combined and no streaks of sour cream or mayonnaise remain.
- 6
Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to let the flavors meld; serve chilled with crackers, crudités, or crostini.
